PATRONS OF mUsBANDRY.
MoRTIMERw HIrEHEAD.

In several States we learn that Bohe-
milan oat swinGlers are again at work.
Sometimes they are using the same
scheme with some wonderful new
wheat. Patrons 1iH not, and farmers
should not, be csugh. with their well
baited hooks. Besides the many warn
ings given by the agricultural press, the
National Grange has given the "sign Of
caution" in these words: "The very ma
ture of the proposition and the proVis-
ions contained in the bylaws OF these
specializing schemes are enough to con-
denim them in the eyes Of all thinking
men. But the isolated condition OF the
American farmer renders him too often
an easy victim to the wiles OF the oily
:ongued canvasser. We desire to warn
Patrons everywhere against this and
kindred schemes for securing their hard
earned dollars. There Is, and can De,
no good in it,"
Think M ore and then act, for the in
quiry is not made so often TO learn what
men or organizations say as to know
what they do. When the history OF this
Order is written the historian will be
concerned to learn and record what you
accomplished rather than what was

AFrNEDRAMATIC EVENT.
Miss Maude Hanks In Joan of Arc,' Thi
Ey..ninl

Miss MAude Banks In "Joan OF Arc,' This
Evening.
Miss Maude Banks, the talented young
actress, will appear at the Opera House,
this and tomorrow evenings, in her new
play. Joan of Arc" Miss Banks has
never been seen in this city, but the repu-
tation that precedes her should assure her
a cordial and hearty greeting. The Oil
City Derrick says of the actress and play:
At the Opera House last night Miss
Maude Banks made her first appearance in
this city in her new play, Joan of ARC"
and was greeted by a large and appreciative
audience, numbering many of our best cit
liens. The play is well written, perhaps
q trife somber in places, but intensely in
teresting throughout, beautiful in Ian
guage, strong in situation and consistent
in climax. Miss Banks made a highly
favorable impression in the title role. The
young lady's work is surprisingly free
from the defects reasonably to be expected
in an actress who has only had couple Of
years experience on the stage. Most no
notable and commendable qualities
are her steady self-cOutrol, which
from the start gave her COM
mand of an audience and easy domination
of the scenes, and her almost entire free
dom from even suspicion of over-acting or
too noisy defamation. Although still OF
slight girlish figure, not at all suggestive
of the heroic, she is endowed with much
dramatic force and fervor, and in the
scenes calling for impassioned expression
last night she acquitted herself admira-
bly,. Her voice is good and capable OF
wide range M expression. The support
ing company is much above the average
the armOrs and costumes fine, and the
scenery appropriate and elaborate, the
illuminated cathedral at Rheims being
one of the handsomest setting ever seen
upon our stage. Miss Banks was gener-
ously applauded, receiving call before
the curtain after every act, even the last
a commitment rarely accorded IN artist.
